Theatre in England for many begins with the 1660 Restoration. The Guide to Shakespearean London Theatres tells the earlier but less known story of developments without which Restoration theatre would have beenimpossible. Between 1567 and 1642, when with Civil War looming,Parliament closed all playhouses, London s early theatrerose and flourished. The story of the entrepreneurs,playwrights, playing companies and audiences who flockedto be entertained in London s first theatres -- all within a 2-mile radius of St Paul s-- is told in this Guide. The Guide s story of the rise of London s Renaissancetheatres during the reigns of Elizabeth I, James I and Charles I is illustrated by many superb colour pictures. But it also prints title pages from the V&A Museum s unique collection of early quarto plays by Shakespeare, Jonson,Marlowe, Kyd, Dekker and others. Together with its free and uniquely designed and annotated map of London s early theatres, the Guide will help readers to both learn about them and to trace their footprints. The Guide to Shakespearean London Theatres is written by Peter Sillitoe, edited by Maurice Hindle, with a Preface by Professor Andrew Gurr, world authority on Shakespearean theatre.
